In general

Effecta Lambda 60 is a wood fired boiler with a induced-draught fan. The boiler should be
connected to one or more accumulators, which are heated via a Laddomat valve. Hot water is
taken from the top of the boiler and is fed to the top of the tank. The return water is taken from
the bottom of the tank and is fed to the bottom of the boiler.
Hot water preparation
For hot water storage, the accumulator tank must have a built-in hot water coil or equivalent.
The temperature of the hot water is adjusted by means of a mixing valve. The amount of hot
water that can be tapped depends on the accumulator tank temperature, size and the incoming
cold water flow.
Combustion
On the front of the boiler is two air inlets with dampers, which are controlled by two motors.
The motors gets signals from the lambda control depending on the amount of oxygen in the flue
gases. The system is designed to get as low output of harmful gases as possible. Normally you
don´t need to change the settings when you are burning different kinds of wood with different
moisture content.
The system
Effecta Lambda should be connected to at least 3000l of accumulation volume. At installation,
there should always be a Laddomat valve connected. A wood fired boiler that is connected to
one or more accumulator tank will have a lot of advantages:
• The loading compartment can always be fully loaded
• The user will have a long time between the warm-ups
• Long life-span
• The boiler is always used on maximum performance
• Efficiency and environmental assets will be on top
Always try to select an accumulator tank size that will allow you to fire no more than once a
day. When a new firing commences, the boiler fan starts up in order to provide combustion air
and prevent smoke emission. When the boiler reaches a temperature of 78°C, the accumulator
tank starts to charge, and the charging equipment ensures that this is done using layering.
When the accumulator tank is heated, the fan and the charging pump stop. The warm water in
the accumulator tank then heats the house via a shunt valve or automatic shunt. The hot water
is controlled with a mixing valve.
Storage of the fuel
To ensure that the Effecta Lambda works in best possible way, the quality of the fuel must be
good. It´s important that the wood has the right moisture, it should be somewhere around 15-
20%. The logs should be split into 5-15cm big bits, and the length should be 45-50cm. Never
use logs longer than 51-52cm, this will make the logs jam in the loading chamber.
Try to use the sun and wind when storing the wood. If it´s to much dampness in the logs, the
efficiency of the boiler will drop.
Dismantling and disposal
It is many years to come before your Effecta boiler is worn out, but we ask you to follow the
rules and regulation currently valid at the time for dismantling and disposal of your boiler.
